Hi OG,

Those errors are difficult to pinpoint, but not impossible
to troubleshoot. Try these suggestions to begin with
however since it's a new machine, try steps 4+5 first! :-)

Let's try some basic troubleshooting. If the problem still persists
please post back and we'll try some more steps. Good luck! :-)

1. To see if it's a software conflict: Temporarily disable Startup
programs one at a time, starting with Firewall, Antivirus, and ad
blockers using this utility: http://www.mlin.net/StartupCPL.shtml
or this method: http://www.pacs-portal.co.uk/startup_content.php

You can lookup what a program does before you disable it here:
http://www.sysinfo.org/startuplist.php

2. Run a virus scan at: http://housecall.antivirus.com and then
install MS AntiSpyware from: www.microsoft.com/spyware to
remove any Spyware or Adware which could clog up your PC.

3. Click My Computer / Rightclick the Drive & Choose Properties
/ Run the "Disk Cleanup..." / Next Click the "Tools" Tab and run
the "Error-Checking" and "Defragmentation" utilities.

4. Go to the Windows Update site for everything under Critical and
Recommended: http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com Some games
require a patch: http://www.avault.com/pcrl/patches_list.asp?letter=a

5. Update DirectX and your Chipset, Sound, &Video Drivers:

it’s not your machine as-is. it is possibly cd/cd-rom, or screwy
files. try installing different software to see if it’s not the rom,
then if it’s not, try defrag or scndsk to see if your computer just
needs some basic maint.

I'm getting the same problem. One thing i have noticed is that my
version of direct X has a dodgy file and whenever you try installing a
newer version nothing happens. I am going to try Formatting to get rid
of dodgy DX as there seems to be no easy way of getting rid of DX! Will
let you know how that goes.

Run dxdiag and see if you have a dodgy DX too.

Athon XP2400
